After Transmigration, I Snag a Stunning Bigwig as My Husband-Chapter 740 - 739 True Love

If you’re really going to be this impulsive, you’ll completely ruin the Emperor’s reputation.

Prince NanAn had a massive headache.

He rarely interacted with noble ladies, and those he encountered were either strictly conventional or exceptionally intelligent.

But with Princess Shouning, who was a bit ditzy and particularly stubborn, Prince NanAn was at a complete loss.

His biggest regret was going into the Baihua Building to rescue Princess Shouning.

It wasn’t like he went there specifically to save her.

Whether he went into the room or not didn’t affect her being rescued.

As soon as he took the lead, he got targeted.

The saying "the leading bird gets shot" was absolutely true.

Her true savior was actually his sister-in-law, Princess Consort Zhenbei.

The palace maid spotted Prince NanAn with a glance and quickly said, "Princess, the Prince is here."

Princess Shouning turned around with a look of delight.

Seeing Prince NanAn’s gloomy face, the smile on her face gradually froze.

"You don’t want to see me, do you?" Princess Shouning said angrily.

She had racked her brains to leave the palace.

Finally seeing him, and he had such a lousy expression.

Princess Shouning really wanted someone to pin Prince NanAn down on a bench and give him a good beating.

"If the Princess doesn’t need me for anything, then I’ll go drink," Prince NanAn said.

Princess Shouning glared with her beautiful eyes.

"Is drinking more important or am I?!" she asked, gritting her teeth.

"...."

Prince NanAn’s mouth twitched.

Wasn’t this too obvious to even ask?

He didn’t want to hurt feelings.

Just as Prince NanAn was about to speak, the palace maid quickly said, "Princess, today is the wedding day of the Eldest Young Master of Duke Dingguo Mansion, and the Prince is his good friend, helping to accompany the guests."

The palace maid was nervous.

If Prince NanAn actually said drinking was more important...

At that time, Princess Shouning might lose face and, in her anger, might really jump into the Lotus Pond.

Then things would really get out of hand.

As her personal palace maid, if she couldn’t stop the Princess, she would be flogged to death.

Princess Shouning snorted, "That doesn’t mean he can’t even spare a few moments to speak to me!"

"I’ve been waiting here for him for half a day!"

Prince NanAn was mentally exhausted.

Princess Shouning extended her hand.

Prince NanAn frowned along with it.

He saw the palace maid crouch down and place a rope in Princess Shouning’s hand respectfully.

Prince NanAn’s mouth twitched.

Was she planning to imitate his sister-in-law and use force?

Did these two women, who couldn’t even bind a chicken, really think they could tie him up?

But Prince NanAn only guessed halfway right.

Princess Shouning did want to use force, but she knew she couldn’t bind him.

Princess Shouning threw the rope onto the stone table and said, "Tie yourself up."

Prince NanAn, "...."

"You want me to tie myself up?" Prince NanAn thought he must have misheard.

Princess Shouning glared at him, "Are you daring to disobey a command from me?"

Prince NanAn, "...."

"Hurry up!" Princess Shouning urged.

The palace maid cautiously eyed Prince NanAn, "Shall I... help... you?"

Prince NanAn felt completely defeated.

Help him?

He couldn’t repay that kind of favor.

But tying himself up was impossible.

It would be shameful.

But leaving...

He was truly worried she’d jump into the Lotus Pond.

With no other option, Prince NanAn took the rope and tied up both Princess Shouning and the palace maid.

Princess Shouning stamped her foot in anger, "Who allowed you to tie me up?!"

At this moment, a guard jumped out from the shadows, "Stop!"

Perfect timing!

With a flick of his hand, Prince NanAn sent the rope binding Princess Shouning and the palace maid flying towards the guard.

Standing in the shadows and allowing Princess Shouning to run wild, how could he not give him a lesson?!

The guard had pretty good martial arts skills, but he was truly not a match for Prince NanAn.

Just as it seemed the guard was about to be overpowered, the Second Prince came out to intervene.

Princess Shouning shouted, "Imperial Brother...."

"You go wait in the rock garden, so you don’t get accidentally hurt when the fight starts," the Second Prince said.

"Make sure you don’t hurt him, just tie him up," Princess Shouning added.

After all, he is her Imperial Brother, standing by her side.

Prince NanAn is skilled in martial arts, but he can’t fight two at once.

With her Imperial Brother taking action, she will definitely achieve her wish.

The rockery is not far away, but Princess Shouning wanted to watch the proceedings and was pulled into the rockery by the palace maid.

A short while later, footsteps approached, and the palace maid finally released her grip.

Princess Shouning happily ran out to see—

Prince NanAn passed right by her.

Palace maid, "..."

Princess Shouning, "..."

Seeing Princess Shouning, Prince NanAn leaped and used Qinggong.

Avoiding trouble, best to give way.

Princess Shouning wanted to chase him, but the palace maid pulled her back, "Princess, let’s go see the Second Prince first."

Only then did Princess Shouning remember her Imperial Brother.

From afar, she could see the Second Prince and the guard were hung in the pavilion, with cloth stuffed in their mouths.

Princess Shouning and the palace maid hurriedly entered the pavilion to release them.

Hmm.

The rope tied two people; its length was insufficient, tied a bit high.

Princess Shouning and the palace maid couldn’t reach.

Couldn’t reach...

Couldn’t reach...

At the banquet.

The clinking of glasses and the lively sounds drowned out the conversations.

Prince NanAn walked in, and a noble son immediately said, "Where did you go, Commandery Prince? We were just about to toast you, and you disappeared."

He grabbed a wine glass for Prince NanAn and started pouring wine.

Prince NanAn had an injury on the back of his hand.

But the blood was bright red.

After drinking four or five glasses of wine, he reached Chu Shun’s side.

Prince NanAn sat at the table and picked up the wine pot to pour himself a drink.

Just as he touched the pot, Chu Shun grabbed his hand, saying, "Your hand...."

The wound that was dripping with bright red blood had now turned black.

Prince NanAn felt dizzy, and his vision started to blur.

It was evident that he had been poisoned.

Chu Shun, who always carried antidote pills, quickly took one out and gave it to him.

The Antidote Pills were prepared by Su Jin, a rare and excellent medicine.

Prince NanAn swallowed it, but Chu Shun was still worried, so he ordered a maid to fetch Su Jin to come and have a look at Prince NanAn.

Chu Shun supported Prince NanAn away from the table, and at this banquet, everyone just thought Prince NanAn was drunk, and no one paid attention.

Prince NanAn sat on a small couch, his head feeling heavier and heavier.

Su Jin hurriedly arrived to take his pulse, saying, "How did you get poisoned?"

"Was it Princess Shouning who poisoned you?" Chu Shun asked.

But upon asking, he felt it wasn’t right.

Princess Shouning just wanted to win him over; she wouldn’t be so ruthless just because she couldn’t get her way, would she?

Prince NanAn said, "It wasn’t Princess Shouning; it was the Second Prince."

Princess Shouning merely wanted to marry him.

The Second Prince and the guard wanted his life.

If not for that, Prince NanAn wouldn’t have hung them in the pavilion.

"Sister-in-law, is the Commandery Prince alright?" Chu Shun inquired.

"Fortunately, he hadn’t drunk much; otherwise, the poison would have been lethal," Su Jin said with lingering fear.

The poison Prince NanAn ingested wasn’t deadly, but if he had drunk more, it would have become dangerously fatal.

For the past few days, Prince NanAn hadn’t been drinking much, aiming to drink the Eldest Young Master of Duke Dingguo under the table at the joyful banquet.

"Do not drink any alcohol today, take one antidote pill a day, and in three days, it will be fine," Su Jin advised.

Prince NanAn was furious.

At this moment, a maid rushed in to report, "It’s not good! The Second Prince is in trouble!"

"What happened?" Chu Shun asked.

"The Second Prince fainted."

Su Jin, Chu Shun, and the others all looked at Prince NanAn.

Wasn’t he just tied up? How did he faint?

Prince NanAn was bewildered.

Just as he was thinking of kicking him a few more times, the Second Prince fainted?

Xingxing curiously asked, "How did the Second Prince faint?"

Xingxing just asked casually, but surprisingly, the maid actually knew, "Not sure who hung the Second Prince in the pavilion, but Princess Shouning went to rescue him."

"As a result, the Second Prince accidentally fell from the pavilion, hit his head on a stone bench, and fainted."

"..."

Su Jin almost choked with internal injury.

Chu Shun patted Prince NanAn on the shoulder, chuckling, "I think Princess Shouning truly loves you."

Prince NanAn, "..."
